Explanation

Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck became the King of Bhutan in 2006 following his father's abdication, making him the world's youngest reigning monarch at that time. He was born in 1980 and was just 26 years old when he ascended to the throne. The Wangchuck dynasty has ruled Bhutan since 1907, and he is the fifth Druk Gyalpo (Dragon King). The other options (Jigme Chan, Jigme Yutsang) are fictional names.
